Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP to all events by June 11, 2023

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

1. Hotel Tivoli Palacio De Seteais (Wedding Venue): This hotel is also our wedding venue and we will have 29 rooms blocked. While most rooms can accommodate up to three (3) guests, we would like to limit reservations to one (1) room reservation per family so we can accommodate all our guests. 2. NH Sintra Centro Hotel: For those looking for a quieter option or traveling with a nanny and need more than one (1) room, we recommend booking at the sister hotel to our wedding venue. This hotel is a 15 minute walk to Seteais and rooms are offered at a 20% discount rate for our guests w/ promo code: NHTSINWED More information on both of these hotels can be found on the "Travel" page!

Question

What kind of weather should you prepare for?

Answer

There is a microclimate in Sintra as the cool Atlantic air meets the warm Mediterranean air. This is the reason for the typical mist, sometimes felt in the summer mornings and ends of afternoons; and the reason the nights are cool, even in the summer months.

Question

Will there be a professional available in the area to do hair and makeup?

Answer

Yes! We will have a professional available nearby for hair and makeup needs on our wedding day, July 8th. Please reach out to Inês at inesabreulima@gmail.com with your request and she will provide available slots and prices.

Question

Does Uber work in Sintra?

Answer

Ubers are not common within Sintra because of their narrow, one way streets. If you plan on taking day trips out of Sintra, we recommend renting a car or if you prefer to explore within the town, the hotels can help with reserving TukTuks to take you around the downtown/palace areas.
